I usually click somewhere in the middle of the screen in Emacs when I
test :-). The code is just a rough scatch, I was just playing with an
idea to see if it could work. You can also try to change the test
function to pm-show-at-cursor, and just have the cursor somewhere in the
window.

I can't tell, if it has something to do with Gnome shell; I don't have
it installed myself; but than it is probably a bug? Emacs should display
and kill child frames correctly regardless of the window manager.
